ALF, aka Gordan, is an alien from a planet called Melmac, which is also made of Melmac. Trivia: ALF stands for Alien Life Form. ALFs planet, Melmac, was destroyed via war. The years of Melmac in order are Harble, Tarble, Goruff, Kilmeri, Gagg, Orring, Barp, Twangle,Tangle, Fanfan, Nathinganger, Anerva, and Fibble. Melmacian laws were very weird, a few are: it's illegal to name your child after wood, you can't tickle a barber, need a license to use a gas grill, can't juggle cousins etc.
